On October 9th, 20 people came to our place escaping airstrikes in Remal Area. Stayed for three days. Then we altogether left our neighborhood at 1am and stayed for 6 hours in a restaurant. Came back to see bombing of 8 story building causing damages in the house.

Ben and Jerry's calling presidents evil colonizers and taking admit stolen land in support of the HeSapa being returned to my people is something I didn't think I'd ever see lol. Very very cool.
I am stunned at @benandjerrys post about Land Back and returning the Black Hills. Usually even the most “progressive” brands will only offer lukewarm land acknowledgments and stop there. Seeing a company this big tell the real truth using this language evokes so many emotions.

Today, I filed legislation alongside @RoyceWestTX to ensure that students have the right to wear culturally significant Native American items during their graduation ceremony.  HB 4066 & SB 1857 were inspired by recent high school graduate, Kayla Price. 👇🏼 #txlege
